*no Reserve* Rust-free Cj8 Scrambler - V8 - New Paint - Runs Excellent on 2040-cars
Lawrence, Kansas, United States
|
Yes, there are really 385 miles on this restoration. This one is a steal at the opening bid price. Parts alone far exceeded the starting bid. The Scrambler has a rebuilt 304 V8 engine, with a fresh carb and runs great. There are absolutely no known drivetrain flaws. The Scrambler runs down the highway well, even with the lift and massive, 35-inch Super Swampers. The drivetrain is tight and responsive, and there are no leaks or drips. It has been professionally built and adult owned. It has never spent the night outside.
The Scrambler has a new, professional, 6 mil paint job. It has a 100% rust free, clean steel body, and has never been off-road or abused. My painter claims he’s never seen anything like it.
The Scrambler has a rebuilt Dana 300 transfer case. The entire drivetrain, suspension, body, interior, and electrical have been gone through and updated. The only known defect is an intermittent gas gauge. All of the gauges and sending units are new.
Drivetrain Small block V8, 304 CID: rebuilt, less than 1000 miles Headers Fresh Holley carburetor T-15, heavy duty, 3-speed transmission; generally considered the heaviest-duty 3-speed transmission ever manufactured: rebuilt, less than 1000 miles Dana 300 transfer case: widely considered the best transfer case ever manufactured; rebuilt, less than 1000 miles Dana 44 (upgraded) rear axle, replacing the standard Model 20 rear end Dana 30 front end New front disc brakes; stops great
Body 100% rust-free body New neoprene body grommits Rock solid frame Fold-down windshield (which I’ve never had down) Rugged Ridge double front bumper Custom, super heavy duty rear bumper Bushwacker fender flares
Paint This is a true, 6-mil, three-stage professional paint job. Needless to say, this isn’t typically what you find on a classic jeep. The first coat is Deltron epoxy primer; if you know your paint, you know that this is as good as it gets. No exterior surface has less than two coats of PPG 4273 Radiant Fire Red. Everything was wet sanded and buffed appropriately.
Wheels and tires 35-inch Super Swamper tires Warn locking hubs
Interior High-back, BesTop Aqua front seats, in very good condition Completely Linx’d interior All new gauges All new sending units Locking Tuffy center console, set up for concealed stereo, in very good condition New heater core and defroster unit Billet aluminum knobs
Extras Brand new Warn CE M8000 winch, with remote, never used Dual Glaspaks All trim pieces are stainless steel Hard half-doors, in good condition Bikini top, in good condition Lots of spare parts, should you want them, including Original exhaust brackets Army jerry cans 1981 Chilton’s CJ guide A pair of stainless steel 1000lb tow hooks A new WindJammer, which I’ve never had on Anything else I might turn up
Legal If you have any questions whatsoever, please ask. If you would like pictures of anything in particular, please let me know prior to bidding. I encourage you to inspect the vehicle prior to purchase. I will be happy to facilitate you and/or your chosen mechanic’s inspection prior to the end of the auction. I try to be as thorough as possible, but I’m not an expert or a mechanic, so please take the time to ask questions, and look at all of the pictures. At the end of the day, the vehicle is listed in ‘AS-IS’ condition, and no warranties or guarantees are made or implied.

NHTSA closes probes on Jeep Grand Cherokee, Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey
Wed, 09 Jan 2013The Detroit News reports the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has officially closed its investigations into 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee, 2004-2005 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey models. The separate probes found no issues that pose safety concerns. NHTSA began investigating certain Grand Cherokee SUVs over complaints that power steering hoses could detach during operation, thereby increasing the risk of a vehicle fire. Of the 24 reports of failure, none alleged smoke or fire in the engine bay, and Chrysler has since modified the power steering cooler assembly to reduce the likelihood of the failure.
Meanwhile, certain Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey vehicles garnered a government probe after receiving complaints that the models were equipped with faulty scissor jacks. The agency had received six reports of the jacks failing or causing injuries, including one incident that resulted in a fatality. But NHTSA says the jack failure rate is similar to those found in other vehicles. In those six cases, the government agency found the jacks were being used for something other than changing a tire, and investigators could not determine whether the emergency brake was set or the rear tires were properly chocked.
Chrysler mum on Toledo Wrangler production after meeting Ohio leaders
Fri, 10 Oct 2014
"Fiat Chrysler remains committed to producing vehicles in Toledo and anticipates employment to remain at current levels."
The future of the iconic Jeep Wrangler in Toledo, OH, remains uncertain after a meeting Thursday between Fiat Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne and Ohio government leaders.
Chrysler registers Trackhawk trademark
Wed, 01 Oct 2014There may not be many ways to forecast what an automaker is planning for the future, but there are some. Trademark applications are one of them, and Chrysler has just applied with the US Patent and Trademark Office to protect the name "Trackhawk." The question is, what's it planning on using it for? We don't know for sure, but we can put together an educated guess or two. And one guess is that Jeep will use the name to replace the letters SRT on the performance version of the Grand Cherokee.
How do we figure, you ask? From a number of developments. For starters, the SRT division has been reintegrated into the Dodge brand. Those letters currently appear on only two vehicles from outside the Dodge lineup: one is the Grand Cherokee SRT, and the other is the Chrysler 300 SRT. We've heard ruminations (however unconfirmed) that the latter could be either discontinued or possibly relabeled, and if the same proves true of the GC, the Trackhawk name could serve as a on-road performance counterpart to the Trailhawk label applied to off-road versions of models like the Cherokee and Renegade.
Logical it may be, but it's hardly a foregone conclusion. The Trackhawk name could just as easily be used for a new concept (like the Trailhawk name was in 2007), for another kind of trim level or for something else entirely. In fact we don't even know for sure it'll be used by the Jeep brand specifically, or used at all for that matter. Automakers have been known, after all, to register names they don't end up using.
